Full Job Description

📋 Description

• As the engineering manager for the Entitlements & Spend Platform team, you'll lead the engineers building the runtime layer between Orb's billing engine and the workflows customers build on top of it: alerting, spend controls, entitlement checks, and usage analytics.
• This is a foundational team. You'll set its technical direction, shape its roadmap alongside your product and design partners, and define the interfaces the rest of Orb builds against.
• The work sits squarely at the intersection of infrastructure and product: real systems engineering where correctness and latency are non-negotiable, paired with a customer-facing surface where API design and getting the primitives right matter just as much.
• You will own the success and growth of the engineers on your team — run regular 1:1s, give consistent and actionable feedback, tailor projects to each person's development, and onboard new engineers with the technical and product context they need.
• You will hold the bar on technical decisions, reviewing architecture and design docs and critical code with an eye to long-term maintainability; proactively manage technical debt and keep defect rates low while balancing speed and quality.
• You will advocate for developer experience and a high standard of API design across the team's surface.
• You will drive scoping, costing, and estimation, and own the accuracy of those estimates; set clear expectations, manage cross-functional communication, and escalate risks early so the team delivers on time.
• You will lead high-quality QA, with particular attention to the correctness and completeness this domain demands. Customers trust these numbers.
• You will cultivate a collaborative, inclusive team culture, bringing PM into architectural discussions early so user and business implications surface before code does, and resolving the interpersonal or systemic issues that get in the team's way.
• You will partner closely with Product and Design and contribute directly to product discovery and strategy, making sure engineering insight shapes the roadmap, and that the decisions you advocate for represent the customer's perspective, not just the system's constraints.

🎯 Requirements

• You have 6+ years of experience in software engineering, with 2+ years as an engineering manager or tech lead manager equivalent
• You have a track record of growing engineers and holding a high bar for technical excellence
• You're comfortable navigating ambiguity and enjoy establishing a team's foundations: bringing clarity, structure, and execution rigor to a high-leverage, still-forming domain
• You have a deep technical understanding of distributed systems, data modeling, and system architecture, ideally with exposure to real-time or low-latency systems
• You partner naturally with Product and Design, and you advocate for the customer's perspective, not just the technical constraints of the system

🏖️ Benefits

• Excellent medical, dental, and vision insurance
• One Medical membership
• Unlimited PTO plus an additional week off between Christmas and New Year’s
• 401k plan
• 16-week paid parental leave with equity vesting
• Commuter stipend
• Catered lunches in the office
• Annual learning & development stipend
• Meaningful equity in the form of stock options
